+--------------------------------------------------------------------- This is the first of any updates I receive to keep everyone informed about the CineNova TV production of the Cecil's role during the 1962 Cuban Missile crisis. Links to these updates will appear on the Home Page as I receive them. +--------------------------------------------------------------------- Email message I received from Capt. Rozier. Dear Shipmate Crowley, All of us Cecil sailors were happy to get your message that you are now rehabbing from a very serious operation. I am recovering myself from a much less dangerous operation, replacing my 11-year-old pacemaker, and fortunately everything is going okay. We wish a speedy recovery for you. You asked me to keep you informed on the developments in the media world. I think that the Canadian company CineNova is wrapping up their production. They got good cooperation from several Cecil sailors who provided pictures, news items and certificates for use in the documentary. It will air on the Discovery Channel on or near 22 October. The book "October Fury" by Captain Peter Huchthausen will be published the 13th of September. I recently gave another TV production company an interview on Cecil's part in the missile crisis. The producer tells me it will air on the History Channel in October. So we have three things going which will mention our ship in connection with the 40th anniversary of the Cuban Missile Crisis that President Kennedy announced on October 22, 1962. That's all the update I have right now; if anything else turns up I will pass it along. Take care, get well quickly, and keep in touch! +---------------------------------------------------------------------
